[humanser] Guide dogs and in home practice

[Shannon Cook]

HI,

I am applying for a guide dog and wanted to know if any of you use a dog for in home settings with your clients.  I know the laws for taking a dog into public spaces, but obviously, I cannot make someone allow me to take a dog into their homes if they do not wish.  Has anyone encountered this issue?  If so, what do you do with your dog in the event that someone will not allow you to bring your dog in their homes for personal or medical reasons?

Any feedback will be helpful.

Thanks,
